Heidelberg Day

There is a direct train from where we are staying. It was about a 30 minute trip. After arriving at the Heidelberg station we took a. Us to the castle which is accessed by the funicular. On the way on the bus it seems there was a choir group so we were treated with songs on the way.

The funicular is a relatively short trip. The earliest structure dates back to the 1400's but the main castle was in the 1600's.

Some restoration work has been done but a lot of the castle is in ruins. At the site there is also a pharmacy museum.

After the castle we joined the tourist throngs on the main shopping street. It was packed which is understandable since it is Saturday.
